Genes affected
HNF4A (HGNC:5024): (hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha) The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear transcription factor which binds DNA as a homodimer. The encoded protein controls the expression of several genes, including hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha, a transcription factor which regulates the expression of several hepatic genes. This gene may play a role in development of the liver, kidney, and intestines. Mutations in this gene have been associated with monogenic autosomal dominant non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus type I. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding several different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]

Maturity onset diabetes mellitus in young Uncertain:1Benign:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 27, 2021This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterresearchClinical Genomics, Uppaluri K&H Personalized Medicine Clinic-This mutation is associated with poor insulin secretion in response to hyperglycemia. Associated with MODY1. Patients initially respond well to sulfonylureas but eventually become insulin dependent. However, no sufficient evidence is found to ascertain the role of rs146751799 variant in Diabetes Mellitus yet. -

Type 2 diabetes mellitus Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterresearchBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard-The heterozygous c.427-4G>A variant in HNF4A has been identified in 3 Philippino siblings from 1 family with maturity onset diabetes of the young (PMID: 15281001), but has also been identified in >1% of South Asian chromosomes and 4 homozygotes by ExAC (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). Computational prediction tools suggest that this variant may impact splicing, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely benign for autosomal dominant diabetes mellitus type 2. -
